Phil Crosby, Bing's son, recorded this cute song for Reprise in October of 1963...

I met Phil when he came to Sydney around 1965 and performed at the Hilton Hotel.
I rang Phil and we met at his hotel for a beer. I gave him a book on Australiana put out by Aussie Oil Company - Ampol, for whom I was working at the time.
He was a nice bloke and we chatted for about 45 minutes. I never got to see him perform.
Gary had visited Sydney with Louis Armstrong and I saw him at the old Sydney Stadium.
Sat in the cheap 50cent bleachers.

It’s nice and Phil had a good voice. Must have been hard to live in the shadow of his dad. Would have been an asset on one hand but a burden on the other always being compared but never coming close.
